14th Annual Domino Toppling Extravaganza

October 17, Sunday, 5:30 p.m.

An annual spectacle and crowd favorite, the Domino Toppling Extravaganza returns to BMAC for the 14th year in a row. This year’s event will be presented both in person and online.

Veteran domino toppler and YouTube superstar Lily Hevesh and three other domino artists—Shane O’Brien, Chris Wright, and Nathan Heck—will arrive in Brattleboro 48 hours ahead of the toppling to begin setting up the spectacle. The floor of BMAC’s Wolf Kahn & Emily Mason Gallery will be filled with an elaborate pattern of tens of thousands of dominoes. Correctly guess how many dominoes are set up, and you could start the entire chain reaction!

In connection with this year’s event, Latchis Theatre hosts a film screening Lily Topples the World, and talkback after the film, on Saturday, October 16, at 7 p.m.

Watch the video of BMAC’s 2020 Domino Toppling, which featured 23,000 dominoes.

Doors open at 5 p.m.
